Deputies respond after reports of shots fired in Greenville County
GREER, S.C. – The Greenville County Sheriff’s Office said deputies responded Friday afternoon following reports of shots fired in the area.
Situation Unfolds
Officials said the situation began when crews responded to a residence near N Rutherford Road for a welfare check. According to officials, fire officials arrived at the scene and thought a man fired gunshots, so law enforcement responded to help.
Property Damage
Officials explained that law enforcement got to the scene and learned that the man who owned the residence had broken a window with a pipe, which is what caused fire officials to think shots had been fired. Deputies confirmed that the man only damaged his own property and wasn’t taken into custody following the incident.
